2 masses are connected through a non-stretchable string that passes over a frictionless pulley. The masses of the objects are 12 kg and 5.5 kg respectively. The obj with larger mass is hanging 2.5 m fr the surface of a table. Suppose that the two objs are initially at rest. (a) Calculate the resulting acceleration magnitude when the 2 are released fr rest. (b) How long will the larger mass travel before hitting the table surface? (c) At what speed willit hit the table surface?
